Model
Overview
Single-use, stirred-tank fermentor systems for growing microbial cultures, in two sizes: 50 L and 200 L.
- Microorganism growth performance comparable with conventional stainless steel fermentors.
- Powerful mass transfer from a high-power input impeller.
- Oxygen transfer capacity that supports high-density fermentation.
- Robust bag design with no leakage-prone mechanical seals.
Powerful mixing, high oxygen transfer capacity, and efficient temperature control
Strong and efficient agitation is provided by a powerful magnetic drive. The jacketed heat-transfer surface of the fermentor vessel provides efficient heating and effective cooling of the culture. An external temperature control unit (TCU) offers the flexibility to address process and facility requirements, with pre-engineered standard options available.
Stainless steel-equivalent performance and efficient utilization
The XDR fermentor systems deliver scalable, reproducible, process equivalence to conventional stainless steel systems. With a modern industrial design and the improved benefits of single-use, the XDR fermentor systems eliminate the need for time-consuming clean-in-place and steam-in-place operations. The XDR fermentor reduces set-up time between batches, leading to high operational throughput and efficient equipment utilization.
Robust bag design
The culture is contained in a robust disposable bag assembly (XDA) that maintains integrity under high speed, turbulent mixing, and high gas flow conditions. To minimize leakage risk, the impeller is magnetically coupled with no rotating seals.
Designed and built for real fermentation processes
XDR fermentors are developed by users for users and performance has been verified with microorganisms such as E. coli, Pseudomonas and yeast. The know-how gained is used in customer support and continuous improvements of the single-use fermentor portfolio.
